Panama Papers
Panama Papers (Офшорный скандал) is set of publications about money laundering by leaders of Russia, China and other countries in Panama.
Scale of the phenomenon
Huge amounts of money have been revealed at the hidden and fictive accounts. It is believed, that at least \(2 \times 10^9\) USA dollars of Putin are found at the account opened for the name of not-so-popular musician Sergei Roldugin.
It has been revealed, that the top of the Russian administration is interested in terroristic acts in Europe, as well as in the military vonflivts over the world, and, in particular, in the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
For this reason, the Panama Papers are expected to reveal the connection between Russian bureaucrats from the top administrators of KGB, Duma, Senate, Edro and the functionaries who perform the terroristic acts.
Not only Panama
Some expectations are expressed, that many countries plan to reveal at least the most important cases of the tax evasion and avoidance in other countries too. [2]
